call... today. liberty mutual insurance -- responsibility. what's your policy? hello, everyone. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five." president obama just touched down in dallas, texas amid a growing humanitarian crisis at our border with mexico. the president continues to refuse calls for a border visit despite holding meetings and fundraisers less than 300 miles away. chuck todd and charles krauthammer wonder if this white house understands the severity of the situation. >> they are very much in denial about this. they totally deny this

allegation coming from some of us in the media that they don't look like they are on top of the situation. they argue they are very much on top of the situation and the president physically being there isn't a big deal. >> the problem is we have a huge problem. the president has done nothing. he either doesn't know what to do or he wants it to go the way it is. he doesn't have a policy. and instead as with everything in this administration, all we talk about is the pr and the language. >> before his visit obama seemed to be more focused on beers and bill lard billards as opposed to our borders. >> when he has shown playing pool in colorado, drinking a beer, and he can't even go to 42 miles to the texas border, he either can roll up his sleeves and go down the border or he can just look aloof and detached and

not go to the border, send surrogates down there and say he's got everything under control. >> all right. we got a president who apparently is quite good at billiards and beer built borders having a struggle. >> good news for president obama he decided to shake governor perry's hand and turned the entire trip over to taxpayer's america. three fundraisers in texas that they have to pay for. once they start doing official business they let the taxpayer take over some of the costs. that is really unbelievable. maybe that's why he decided to sit down with rick perry for a chat not go to the border which is what he should be doing. maybe she should build a golf course and basketball court at the border. >> he certainly makes being president look like a lot of fun. when i see this picture, quite a shot. >> what they are trying to do is let president obama be obama. they had a plan for this summer.

they were going to have president obama go out and meet people that sent him letters. that was a pretty good pr move. because they were able to build stories and official events as they go through the summer months. this particular picture, i think, the white house is saying the president has everything under control. everything is fine. you at fox and now the democrats, some of them coming out you can all freak out. the president has got it under control. here's what i'd concerned about for the president and the country. yes, they have a political problem and i think that's making their policy problem to solving their policy problem even more difficult because you have to have both hand-in-hand. what the president should have done initially accept rick perry's invitation. go to the border and make rick perry own part of it. and say i'll do a joint press conference with you. it would be very unusual for somebody like rick perry to be dismissive or degrading towards the president if he's there at the table with him. i think they played it almost

exactly wrong. they tried to salvage with the meeting they are having in dallas. i don't think it's enough to overcome their pr problem which is then swamping their policy problem. >> now, greg, you're making an interesting face there. quizical. >> it's my normal face. i'm always quizical. i don't think we should be surprised by this. if he secures the border he doesn't have his comprehensive immigration package. he wants it to fall apart then you have to have this incredible package. flight 370 has more presence than him at this point. he's not there. he's checked out. i prefer to look at president obama's administration as a bad marriage you had in your early 20s that by 2016 you'll try to get out of and forget that it ever happened and jove on. >> chalk it up to experience. >> you have two years left to get through this, bob. just two years.

this is the number that kills me. $1.8 billion in emergency funding. $35,000 per kid. some are gang members. good news some are adorable. so that's okay. but we're paying, we're paying a lot of money for what could have been preventable but it doesn't matter because we wanted this to happen. >> double that. >> i can straighten this all out for you because first of all to start with, you're lucky you missed this, but dana was trying to clear some of this out from her teeth with a newspaper. >> you're charming, bob. >> by the way, it's pool. not billiards. >> you must not have talking points. >> no. i do. if i was the advance man for the president i would send him to the border. in texas you can carry a gun without having to have a permit and what you should do is go out

and round up about eight 10-year-old girls and put them out in the desert with half a gallon of water and yes you can, you wooses. or dig a fence hole, a hole for the fence that they are building and sing "old man river." there's some things key do that would make a difference. are you kidding me? do you think it matters one way or another? has anybody asked rick perry humanities he's been dloun or getting to his ranch getting the rest off of there? >> that's uncalled for. he's been there, he's going to be there. henry core is a democrat who said this could be president obama's katrina. the one who said this morning on "fox & friends" after he made that comment he was told to pipe down, shut up and he took his marching orders from him. >> where is his congressional district. >> florida. >> i don't know.

where is it? they will tell us in a second. texas. >> what's wrong with that. that's where the board certificate. >> if i were a texas congressman i would say the same thing. >> chuck todd a very liberal reporter as well basically saying this is the optics looking bad for president obama. you can step up, bob and say look maybe they screwed this one up. basically president obama's presidency summed up. he takes a scandal that he's embroiled in and creates another one to forget the last one. irs, va. >> another scandal. >> yes. >> these kids fleeing gang warfare. >> it's not all kids fleeing gangs or gang lifestyle. that's an overstatement that's eroneous. >> when they had all those things in denver with the beer and pool they didn't cover the

fact he took a leak in the bathroom. >> we won't diminish an issue that's facing this country with that kind of language. tanna, people making comparisons saying this is president obama's katrina. you have some firsthand knowledge of that. >> i reject that comparison if you're looking at it apples to apples because hurricane katrina was a natural disaster that 800 people died, the city was destroyed. i don't think it's fair to compare the two. however, i think what the congressman means and it's a warning shot from a friendly source on the ground to president obama, a white house that he's tried to work with and that he's probably voted for along with in the congress several times throughout the last six years is he was trying to help him avoid a political crisis that will make any sort of policy improvement almost impossible. i think that is the comparison that they are making to katrina. this is the decision regarding

that was a mistake to that have president, president bush fly from san diego back to washington, d.c. and not stop in louisiana. there were reasons for it. people on the ground, law enforcement said if we need our first responders to be actively working to rescue people that was why that decision was made to have the president fly over and then there was the photo taken and that becomes the moment that's the pr problem for the president. but i've been trying to explain to the president just don't -- learn from our mistake. do it better and just -- >> should that be the mature approach when you act in the best interest of the country instead of blaming and going back to all these other things. >> it has nothing to do with katrina. the question i have, again, as i always ask you people is, first of all, taking the president of the united states into situation like that is huge chaos. takes a lot of resources to do it. what would he do? >> okay. if you look at how the other networks are important training this crisis, they are talking

about all these young kids fleeing gang violence. and they are coming here. have they seen chicago? this is not a place to come if you're fleeing gang violence. none of the left cares about gang violence until it's in honduras or el salvador. so that is baloney. obama's reaction, he's sick. he's actually ill. he has fox news cooties. any time there's an issue we cover or we report he derides. his ego can't bear him to do something that we report as a legitimate story. it bothers him. what he does is the opposite. chaos for him is helpful because it pushes his overall belief in comprehensive immigration reform. >> identify said over and over again gang violence in chicago. >> yes. >> your point being? >> it's just that. >> you know what this is? this president obama spending more time worrying about

fundraising than a legitimate crisis on our southern border. >> then answer me the question, what would you do? >> number one, i would get down there and talk to the people in that town, the leaders in that town. what do we need to do here. i would tell you right now the mayor of the town of murrieta will tell them send these kids back we don't want these kids. we can't have these kids. this area can't handle these kids. the american people need to see him listening to people on the ground telling him what's going on. he doesn't need advisors. >> the white house announced they were going send them back, not give them humanitarian grounds to be here. >> you can't out blanket humanitarian grounds. this has to be done in orderly fashion. there's laws in place to make sure these children have due process. you also got send a message you can't just willfully break our laws and come over and expect the american taxpayers to pay for everybody who says they have a hardship.

the system cannot sustain it financially. >> you may say they are liars. >> i didn't say that. >> they did announce they would send them back not give them humanitarian grounds. the only ones that do are cubans who step one foot in florida and all of a sudden are citizens. >> we can go back to that issue. that's a playing issue, a policy decision for a long time that's turned very political and might change in the future if president obama says he might want to change that. i have two things. you asked what could they have done? the administration has said they knew that this crisis was developing since last october. the other thing that they've known is these fundraisers the president had in texas were on the books for a while. you don't just make those up overnight. so when they are in their planning meeting does no one in the room say, you know, if the president is going to texas and we know that there's a crisis coming and he's only doing fundraisers shouldn't we do

something? >> that's one thing that i think they should have done differently. >> they don't think ahead from text the president and the president isn't protect himself. if i could say one other thing. we're talking so much about the stalk, the number of children that are here. the real immediate problem is the flow. how do you stop the flow from coming in. that's the policy problem that the president should focus first on that and second he needs to deal with this issue that mexico and canada, those children have to have immediate hearings. i'm sorry i blew right through that. mexico and canada those children get immediate hearings. congress could agree with the president to expand that to central america or maybe other countries around the world so that they fix that law like diane feinstein suggested. >> he's commander-in-chief, pull it together. >> he's treating the border

politically. he's not treating it patriotically he's treating it plumbly. >> that's an awfully strong statement. >> he's wonderfully consistent. >> coming up, president obama won't be going to the border today while he's in texas butwi perry about the crisis and you just saw them moments ago walking together. and fox's ed henry is in dallas to preview that sit down. it's all coming up next on "the five." stay with us. i'm randy and i quit smoking with chantix. as a police officer,

i've helped many people in the last 23 years. but i needed help in quitting smoking. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some could be life threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. i did not know what it was like to be a non-smoker. but i do now. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you.

♪ ♪ come back to texas ♪ it's not the same since you went away ♪ >> president obama began his day in colorado where he was snubbed by one of the sitting democratic senator. mark udall chose not to thereabout. the president chose to do a fundraiser for him. the president is in texas for

more fundraisers and a hastily arranged meeting on immigration. >> at the moment this president the politically radioactive. he's confronted now with as bad a set and as extensive a set of woes and troubles as any president at any time that i can remember between the va and the terrible situation in the middle east here, iraq and syria. you got this horrible situation downtown border and the terrible political dilemma it brings with it. theers situation is percolating again. this is quite a catalog and quite a burden for him and he, therefore, quite a burden on those who are seeking re-election this year. >> joining us now from dallas is our own ed henry. ed, why don't you catch us up on the day just to give us a picture of how the white house is dealing with this bitter pill it had to swallow this morning? >> reporter: pretty fast-moving day. in a couple of minutes you'll have a hard time hearing me because you'll have marine one

landing at love field. in denver he met governor rick perry. one on one chat, much talked about, we expect this happening as we speak on marine one. i'm starting to hear a little bit of noise like it's coming in the distance. then they will go in the executive terminal behind me a few hundred feet behind me to meet with state leaders, local leaders to talk about immigration reform more broadly in this crisis more specifically. one thing the president will not going to do he won't go the border. white house officials said despite rumors of a side trip not going to happen. what he'll do about 6:45 eastern time after this meeting with governor perry and others he'll come out and make a live statement and update us on the situation. >> ed all these people meeting with him including governor perry who as i said i'm glad he's taking i'm off from his ranch to get rid of signs, did

they offer a particular concrete proposal they can give the president about what they would do about it? >> i have not seen a concrete proposal. i've seen a lot of republicans on the hill picking apart the president's $3.7 billion plan for emergency funding and haven't put their own emergency funding plan on the table. democrats will try to push back on that. from any objective standpoint this is a crisis that's not been handled welby the white house. they have been struggling to dig out. it's gotten practically worse and worse every day as this has continued and the president has appeared to be very reactive to events rather than getting on top of it from the beginning. >> ed, you mentioned crisis. we noted president obama seems to be blind sighted by these crisis, benghazi, irs, va, isis crisis and then the border. literally what's next? is there another one lurking around the corner that everyone will run to that crisis and forget about the border? >> what's interesting, as you know the department of homeland security put out a contract

months ago back in january saying they needed thousands of escorts to deal with something like 50, 60,000 unaccompanied minors they were expecting coming in. when we asked the white house about that they referred us to the department of homeland security. sure they looked like they were surprised but why was the department homeland security -- you hear the helicopters coming in -- why were they planning for this months ago. if they were planning for what they expected to be a large bit of migration why weren't they better prepared. >> they were getting -- they wanted somebody to take care of kids when it got here. no proposal. what will you do set up road blocks in honduras? >> could have been on the phone with central american leaders back then. >> ed, it's kimberly guilfoyle. just seems there's strong criticism for the president on both sides even coming from leading democrats about the way this situation has been mishandled from the beginning pinpoint seems the president is

loathe to put himself at the center of it or be photographed at the border or with the children in this detention center. when can we expect some leadership, some action, some movement in the right direction? >> reporter: well the way they answered that at the white house is that a whole series of officials including a deputy attorney general today was at the border, you know, couple of hundred miles away looking at it up close and they say that's why the president has been briefed. dana has been through that before. it's not like the president doesn't know anything about this. all kinds of officials have been on the scene. in fairness that does go on. dana would also tell you because of president bush's struggles with katrina and other matters there's nothing like the president himself, democrat, republican, man, woman going on the scene and getting your hands dirty. >> especially if you're going there for a fundraiser. can we get greg in? >> do you think when president obama was asked to check out our borders he thought they meant

the book store? >> reporter: i'm pretty certain that's not the case. i was waiting for your off beat question and you surprised me yet again with an interesting one. i noticed that the rnc put out a statement saying the only way the president would get on top of this crisis and go the border if the dnc schedule a fundraiser there. you can see the republican shots coming at the president because of those fundraisers. by the way one of the fundraisers here in texas, a texas barbecue theme, of course, $10,000 a person. better be some pretty good barbecue. >> i heard that everybody that shows up at the fundraiser because president obama is so radioactive they all have to wear a hazmat outfit. so they don't get any kind of illness, bob. how do you feel about that, bob. >> i'm trying to speak. just a couple of related questions, ed. president put forth a $3.7 billion proposal to take care of these kids. did the rnc by any chance have in their statement any proposals

or any ideas? of course they didn't. >> reporter: i checked the statement a couple of times. >> they haven't had a thought. >> they haven't. when jon kyle wanted help on the border that was a fantasy back in 2010. >> what would do you? >> that's so easy. you enforce border. >> send them back. >> $3.7 billion -- >> what would do you? >> i would -- >> no. what would you do, bob. would you have those kids in your apartment? in your large apartment? >> i would get those kids -- send those kids home. >> wow. wait a minute. that's racist. >>, it's not. >> how dare you. you want to send these poor kids home, bob. that's bigoted of you. >> obama didn't have anything to get them here. >> republicans say send them home, bolling says send them home you thought that was a joke. when you say it, it's okay. >> not at all. the white house announced they were going send them home. >> i think ed left us.

i can't imagine why. ed, there you are. by the way, i really like the way your hair didn't move when the helicopters landed. >> who field produced that hair right there? who is that? >> reporter: wes barrett. >> next time he needs to put you in front of a hobby lobby. that would have been a perfect hit for us then. >> ed, i feel bad for you. go back to the chartered room and get ready for the big statement at 6:45 with president obama. >> reporter: fly on the wall. exclusive interview at 10:00 p.m. ahead israel strikes new targets against a group in gaza. what should america do. that's up next.

♪ ♪ we're going to safe the world tonight ♪ a very dangerous situation has developed in the last few hours. hamas is firing on innocent israelis. check out this video of an israeli wedding bombs flying overhead. so far israel's missile defense system has held up. missile launchinger just fired meaning that it struck an incoming rocket that was targeting, in fact, just blue it up right there targeting a civilian location. >> but hamas spokesman says all israelis have now become legitimate targets. hamas terror group turned politicians representing a large percentage of the palestinian government. now look at the aid the obama administration is sending the palestinians. half a billion dollars per year

to a group who calls america's biggest ally in the middle east a target for their terror. we should be protecting israel not funding their demise. k.g., your thoughts on sending half a billion dollars to the palestinians when hamas is so represented in their government. >> it's a big problem. that's money going 100% in the wrong direction. evidence, the proof is there. i'll tell you what put seems they are not too worried about israel or israel's allies the united states. we've not been strong enough supporters, the relationship between the united states and israel. i think it remains a challenging one. i think that's not lost on the enemies of both of our countries. >> bob, any drawback. any reason why we shouldn't pull back the aid to palestinian authority? >> first the request for us to put half a billion dollars there came from israel number one. because they needed some help in offsetting the cost that israel has to maintain the gaza strip.

some of the hard right-wingers in the israel government want to cut off electricity and water to gaza and that would be i think a terrible idea. let's also remember for good reasons they decided israel to begin this. so they sent bombs into gaza now they are getting them back. >> i think that's not fair to israel. israel did not start. hamas escalated. >> escalated. israel did bomb first in the gaza strip. >> well not unprovoked. >> it didn't happen in a vacuum. >> hamas killed the three israeli teenagers. hamas is the one sending the roberts in. israel has to defend itself. >> i'm not defending hamas. >> are you saying recently or the first rocket that ever flew. bob, hamas indiscriminately targets israeli neighborhoods with missiles, young kids, children, weddings. come on. >> there was a period if you remember a few years ago a lot of bombs coming in to not sends missiles back and forth.

that's been broken probably by hamas. the defense you showed, one it was started by the bush administration and expanded greatly by the obama administration. it's working. but i don't know what you expect obama to do about this. since 1949 nobody has been -- >> greg, go ahead take it. >> you sense a theme. look at the world's hot spots, ukraine, iraq, they have a bothered confreight. in six years the obama administration we're becoming more like the world and less than us. >> can i make one more point? the obama administration is telling israel to back off meanwhile they are having -- >> isn't that a problem, though, sending this message of restraint for a terrorist, for an enemy that shows no restraint and no mercy and directly targets children. >> i think they are being responsible in urging the restraint however i don't think the message strong enough from america to hamas and i think

that when hamas made that alliance the administration blew it off. now iran is in a much stronger position. i understand why urge restraint and find some measure of stability but there are consequences for america's actions over the last several years and the world is taking notice that we got so many spinning pilates going on in america that we have to keep spinning them faster unless one breaks. >> the border situation is right except when israel was formed in november of 1949, every united states president has tried to come with a solution and nobody has been able to. >> then stop spending money there. >> and be tougher on hamas. >> yeah. >> they call that the iron dome. >> the other iron dome. >> i think america should have an awesome dome, the whole thing, we can all live here. >> not worry about climate
